Ich kann dir zu diesen Beiden Kinderwagen nichts sagen, allerdings den folgenden Rat geben: Die Zeit, die dein Kind in der Babywane liegen kann ist sehr kurz, nämlich bis es sich dreht und aktiver wird. Das kann bei manchen Babys schon nach 6 Monaten sein.  Daher empfehle ich, lieber nach einem leichten Geländegängigen Buggy oder Jogger zu schauen, die sich im Ganzen Zusammenklappen lassen. Das kann zwar auch unser ABC Design Kinderwagen, ist dann aber sehr schwer beim einladen. Wir konnten gerade im Urlaub kostenlos einen Britax BOB mit 3 Rädern ausleihen. Sehr leicht, sehr wendig und auch leichtere Wanderwege, die angeblich nicht Kinderwagengeeignet wären, waren damit kein Problem.

I have several different items, so here’s my take - -Bob jogging stroller system. We actually won it and love it for walks around the neighborhood (we have a gravel hilly driveway and live in the country), going on hiking trails, going in the snow, etc. It is a BIG stroller though. It folds but did not fit well in my old small hatchback (Mercedes GLB). It came with the car seat, which is nice but we didn’t really use because we already had the Uppababy system. -Uppababy Vista and Mesa car seat. We purchased a V2 before prices skyrocketed. It really is a nice stroller, very smooth and great for grocery shopping, general activities, malls, etc. I was able to get it in my old hatchback but took some effort. We plan on 2 kids though and that was a big deciding factor. We used the Mesa until my LO grew out of it. -Nuna Rava. Expensive but it is a REALLY nice seat. It is on the larger side but easy to install. -Uppababy Rove. Also a nice seat but I like the Rava better. We have this one in my husbands truck we don’t use as much. -Tushbaby diaper cross body bag. I LOVE this bag. It’s basically a large crossbody but has ample space for extra diapers, wipes, treats, etc. it’s light, cute, and great to use as a combo purse and diaper bag. I bought a fancy dog poop bag holder from Royce and have that clipped on the outside to hold my munchkin diaper disposal bags. -Diaper backpack. I just have an off name brand but I love having a backpack versus huge tote bag. I actually mostly use my Tushbaby and have a separate little cooler bottle bag for the bottles. Edit for formatting

Just get the Bob with the free wheel option, that fucker will go anywhere you push it. then just get a cheap umbrella stroller for tight spaces. You can stress over lots of decisions but i'll die on this hill.

We have 2 kids (a 4 year old and a one-year old) and live car free in Vancouver. We have a Bob running stroller as our main single stroller. When the kids were little, we had a bucket car seat that clipped in. It worked really well but it's a big stroller. Once our first outgrew the bucket seat, we got a Cosco Scenera. We use the scenera when we get car shares and sometimes taxis if we need to. It's really easy to install and super light to carry. We used it with our first until he was about 2 and half years old. Since he's outgrown it, things have become a bit more complicated because he needs a massive booster/car seat combo thing.

I went full Graco for car seat and stroller, and I’ve gotta say it’s been great (I have a 2.5 yo and about to have my second).  It’s not as fancy or quite as smooth a ride maybe as the uppababy, but it’s worked great for us.  I got a BOB jogging stroller once my kid was a little bigger and we primarily used that for a long time.  Still a huge fan of our graco car seats with a toddler.  They all get held to the same safety standard, some of the price of the nicer stuff is just look and feel rather than function.

It’s tricky.  The uppababy minu is a FANTASTIC travel stroller and we flew internationally with it - highly recommend.  I got a past version on good buy gear.  It’s just not ideal for tiny infants - it’s prob more of a 6 months +.  We had the graco version of the vista (modes nest2grow) and it’s large so it’s cumbersome in the car and I wouldn’t fly with it.  But it was very nice with the infant seat and holds tons of gear.  Ultimately we use the minu a lot and a BOB jogging stroller a lot, the big graco hasn’t made as many trips due to size.

I’d say it depends on the route. I have a similar walk and dragging a sled across every shoveled sidewalk and every bare approach is awful. I switched to a BOB jogging stroller because that was easier for both surfaces

With very few exceptions, all our baby clothes were used. We had a local consignment store that would do a “bag sale” to clear out inventory…fill a standard plastic shopping bag for $10. We also had a neighborhood sale and free porch pickup group we sourced tons of stuff from (and passed along things we outgrew). Some stuff is worth splurging on…we both love our BOB jogging stroller and it’s a tank. But so much stuff is going to basically be expendable, so buy it with that mindset!

Don’t get a single, do-it-all stroller. Instead, get multiple specialized strollers and buy them used (FB marketplace, etc), unless there’s one you need to be high-end in one area and is worth the investment(BOB jogging stroller, etc).

The Thule, hands down. It’s so much lighter than the BOB. I have both and prefer the Bob for trail hikes, but the Thule is better for sidewalks and groomed paths and it steers like a dream. This being said, the BOB is more “all purpose” (more storage) while the Thule is JUST running.

Agreed! I got my BOB used for $200 and it’s the best baby-related item I own.
